ESTEVAN - The Estevan Lions Club hosted its 28th annual golf tournament, with proceeds split between CNIB and the Lions Foundation of Canada Guide Dogs.
Eighty-four golfers partook in this year's event, and a lot of them have been supporting the cause throughout the history of the tournament.
As part of the round, all players had to make one blindfolded tee shot. Estevan's Lyle Dukart was at the hole with his guide dog Quebec. He received it through the CNIB almost a year ago and said his smart four-legged friend has been great in keeping him "out of trouble" and safe when getting around the community.
While CNIB supports people with visual disabilities, the Lions Foundation of Canada Guide Dogs helps cover the significant expenses of raising any kind of service dog. One of their dogs was given to a person with autism from Gainsborough, and another went to Carlyle to assist a person with visual impairment, said the local club member.
